| Abstract |
"North Korea and Myanmar (Burma) are Asia's most mysterious, tragic stories. They were the region's most militarized and repressed societies, sitting out the greatest wealth creation project in the history of the world, one that created a belt of middle classes, comfort and security from Singapore to Japan. They were self-isolating and under sanctions by the international community"-- Provided by publisher. |
